ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the diagnostic and therapeutic experiences of 18 patients with chronic expanding intracerebral hematoma.Methods Clinical data of 18 patients with chronic expanding intracerebral hematoma was analyzed retrospectively.Results Most of the lesions were misdiagnosed preoperatively as cerebral neoplasms.Among 18 cases, 15 cases were cured, 2 cases had severe disability, and one case died after operation.Conclusions Chronic expanding intracerebral hematoma must be considered when encapsulated mass lesion is present in the brain. The ultimate diagnosis is confirmed at surgery and by histological analysis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the therapeutic effect of sub-hypothermia on 80 patients with diffusing axonal injury (DAI) and its prognosis.Methods All 80 patients with DAI were randomly divided into the sub-hypothermia group(40 cases)and the control group(40 cases). All patients'vital sign,intracranial pressure (ICP) and blood sugar were measured. 40 cases of the patients with DAI were treated by sub-hypothermia, the rectal temperate (RT) reached 32 0℃～35 0℃,sub-hypothermia lasted for 1～7 days; the control group was treated routine. According to Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS), the prognosis of the patients was evaluated 3 months later.Results In comparison with the control group, increased ICP and raised blood sugar in sub-hypothermia group were significantly decreased (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the new therapy for primary intraventricular hemorrhage (PIH).Methods 31 cases of PIH were treated by rigid neuroendoscopy.The cases were composed of 16 cases of single intraventricular hemorrhage,14 cases of double intraventricular hemorrhage and 1 case the third-fourth intraventricular hemorrhage.24 cases were accompanied with acute obstructive hydrocephalus.Results Duration of operation lasted from 30 minutes to 60 minutes, with an average time of 43.4 minutes.More than 90 percent of hemorrhage in 24 cases with single or double intraventricular hemorrhage were evacuated. 50 percent to 90 percent of hemorrhage were evacuated in other 7 cases. Neurological status was obviously improved and improved in 25 cases, no change in 4 cases and dead in 2 cases.Only one patient developed hydrocephalus.Conclusion Neuroendoscopic neurosurgy for PIH was characterized by visualized manipulation, shorten operative time,minimal invasion, effective hemorrhage evacuation and excellent post-operative outcomes.
ABSTRACT
Purpose:To evaluate the significance of NF ?B P65 protein expression in various human cerebral tumors. Methods:The expression of NF ?B P65 protein in 106 cases of cerebral tumors was studied immunohistochemically. 106 cases included 64 cases of astrocytic tumors and 22 cases of medulloblastoma and 20 cases of meningioma. 10 cases of normal brain tissue were employed as a control group.Results:The positive rate of NF ?B P65 protein of 64 astrocytic tumor specimens was 54.7%; the positive rate of NF ?B P65 protein of 22 cases of medulloblastoma was 36.4% and 5.0% for 20 cases of meningioma. In contrast, none of the normal tissues exhibited NF ?B P65 protein staining. Significant difference were observed between astrocytic tumor group and meningioma, as well as between medulloblastoma and meningioma ( P
